I’m a sucker for the Firecrackers, they are a great little smoke with a big cigar taste. One of my favorite cigar memories was smoking a Fratello Firecraker on the Spanish Steps in Rome. I just thought there was so much irony in that, and it was a great cigar for walking around that wonderful city. I’ll look forward ordering some of this year’s Kristoff Firecrackers too!
2019 Edition of the Firecracker To Be Released On June 24th
In 2006 Two Guys Smoke Shop owner David Garofalo came up with a concept that would become one of the most sought after limited edition cigars each Independence Day. The cigar came to fruition when Don Pepin Garcia was visiting Two Guys Smoke Shop for a series of events. It was at one of these events that Garofalo asked Garcia to roll a cigar with a fuse on it. After some hesitation Garcia rolled the cigar that would become a signature release for the New Hampshire based retailer.
Since 2006 the cigar has seen versions from My Father Cigars, Tatuaje (in the form of an M80), La Flor Dominicana, RoMaCraft, Fratello and DTT’s Mi Querida. In addition the cigar sees an ongoing production version from Jose Dominguez.
This year the first Firecracker release comes from Glen Case and Kristoff Cigars. It’s based off the Pistoff Kristoff blend which features a San Andres wrapper over Indonesia binder and Nicaragua fillers. The blend starts off with a bang and continues right through the explosive finish.
The Pistoff Kristoff Firecracker which is limited to 250 boxes will go on sale at 10am on June 24th via their online website 2GuysCigars.com.
They will retail for $6.99 each or boxes of 20 with a discounted price of $119.99.
